Marella Celebration – the ship

Built for Holland and America in 1984 it is the sister ship of the TUI Spirit, now sadly no longer in the fleet. These are small and friendly ships that often have adult-only cruises, so check online with the cruise details. These will almost always be during school time. Celebration is operated under long term charter by TUI Cruises who have had the ship since 2005. It was refurbished in 2013 including jazzed-up cabins and contemporary furnishings in all the public areas. 20 balconies were added to cabins on Deck 9, possibly one seen in our cabin video and 5 new Deluxe Balcony cabins were built on deck 5. There was also the addition of premium Coffee Port. The ship has 1264 passengers and 520 crew and can travel at 18 knots.

The Mistrals Restaurant offers extravagant dining with lobster thermidor and lamb rack items on the à la carte menu. Attentive waiter service in contemporary surroundings make the small premium for this fine dining well worth the treat. Similarly, Kora La offers an exotic Asian menu with the likes of ginger prawns. This ship often goes to Rome (via Civitavecchia) so you might like to see our films of these destinations and our Angels and Demons tour film. It also goes to Naples where they have the Pizza Festivals. The more you use Doris Visits the more you will see that we try to help make your cruising fun, and all we ask is you click through to the companies via our links. We sell nothing, just offer the tours, the destinations and the cruise operators a window to show their wares.

MARELLA TUI cruise brochure

Essentials – cruise travel labels and our cruise crime novels – oh, and the seasickness bands.

The Port guides here on Doris Visits are a great way to remember your cruise and share with your friends. The mystery thrillers are a whole new way to experience cruising. You may not have been to the ports in the novels, you certainly won’t have been to the parts of the ship they use. All the cruise crime novels will make you feel like you are in the adventure and on the ship – dodge the bullets and stay out of the romance. Ship and cruise accurate, the novels are a great way for new cruisers to discover a ship too. Please share the Amazon link. .CRUISE SHIP HEIST https://amzn.to/2GKQBIp
